Covid-19 Updates

Hugs from Home is a new service we are implementing that will give those not attending the chance to be able to share a token of love and support. Click the link below and leave a message of support that will be handwritten and attached to a white balloon. These balloons will fill our chapel as hugs for the families. They will be able to read your heartfelt messages and hopefully know that many others are there with them in spirit.

Celebrating Life Since 1920

Welcome to Stark Memorial Funeral Home and Cremation Services

The families we serve are always our top priority. During confusing and concerning times such as the current COVID-19 event, we want to share our plans with you. We want to assure you that we are all in this together.

First, we are closely monitoring and following all guidelines from the CDC, national and state funeral associations, and local and state emergency services. We are prepared to offer families the choice of webcasting the funeral for remote viewing by family and friends or holding a private service at the time of death followed by a public memorial service at a later date.

We have set in place new measures to help protect and accommodate the elderly, sick and members of the public. We will make every effort to accommodate families in making arrangements and conducting services in any capacity needed to ensure their safety and comfort while honoring their loved one.

Arrangements can be made remotely, either online or by teleconference.

We are expanding our ability to webcast funeral services.

We encourage the use of our online guestbooks for condolence messages to the family.

We have placed reminders throughout our funeral homes to ask that physical contact, such as shaking hands or hugging, be limited with family members.

We continue, as always, to provide hand sanitizer stations throughout our facilities and have enacted extra cleaning in all public areas.

Again, our family and staff are here to serve, protect and honor each family as we have been for 100 years. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel to call 330-332-5139.
